1week check-up and FULL LIQUIDS HEY!

Hi All,

Had my 1 week post -op check today . Thank you all for sharing about that scale after surgery. First time.. no shame.. guilt.. just it is what it is.... freeing!

Yes, I was up a few pounds from surgery and I am so glad everyone talked about that happening.

We all know that scale is .......only a #. I need to work on that one but have dumped the one we have in the cold,cold, cold shed out back. Not going there!

I just ate the most wonderful tasting food ever... YES!
1 1/2 tablespoons of thin cream of wheats.

I loved it! Stopped when full and I can honestly say... full from food was never in my vocabulary!

WoW, moment This is a new life, new health and the best thing I have ever done to gain a NEW ME.

Thank you all I am so grateful to everyones information and inspiration pre-op to post-op. MN OH Best site I ever found on the net!

Respect and Graditude Always,
MJ

I am so glad you are doing good.  Keep up the good job.. Hugs Marsha

So glad you were prepared for the scale thing - it could have been quite disappointing if you didn't know about gaining weight while in the hospital. How great that you got to move to full liquids!  I know what you mean about the cream of wheat - at that point even without brown sugar on it, it tastes delicious!  Congrats on graduating to fulll liquids! Have a great day today - I'll probably call ya later tonight! Love ya!

That Scale will only go downward from here. Glad to hear how well you are doing.

WooHoo MJ!!!  Congrats on your graduation! ;)  I can't wait to get there.  I should be cleared on Monday! I guess I'll have to get some cream of wheat.....didn't like it before though...but tastes change. Keep up the good work!! Colleen

Oh Colleen,

Monday is going to be awesome for you! You said it "tastes change."

Can't wait to hear how you are Monday and I am still walking and sipping with ya!

Thanks,
MJ
